Twitter is social media for retards......

Someone is getting their pockets lined. This is politics Al Gore style. Its pathetic, "food shortages" yeah right, because we all know food doesn't grow when the climate is warmer........ Scare tactics by intellectually challenged pseudo scientists.

More likely they had smaller class sizes and teachers competent enough to explain it thoroughly before sending them home with it. Seriously, how does a kid even get to ask a question when classes sizes are 40+ students per room these days?

My biggest problem with math as a kid was I never had a math teacher that spoke fluent English. I couldn't understand them. And when I had questions, and was lucky enough to actually get called on to ask it, I rarely understood wtf they were saying.

Enlightenment was all the rage when I register MY slashdot account. It's positively ancient and has never had any real install base. In fact its pretty much the buggiest pile of shit on earth and even trumps Google in terms of length of time in beta.

States playing favorites with healthcare providers and giving them the same type of monopolies in their states that they do telcos is the problem. There is zero reason why every insurance provider can't compete in every single market, yet states consistently block providers for participating. There is no free market presently.

You're still an asshole socialist prick though.

And yet you bought and use Windows 8 rather than abstaining and hitting MS in the pocket book where it counts. They really learned a lesson there.

Yep. Dumped all my tech stocks today. This is going to be real ugly. It'll be 10 years before the dust settles.

It's both. Distro's refuse to install the binary blobs from the providers, instead using the open source and usually crippled versions while the graphics card providers refuse to open up their source (though intel is better at this than the others).

I'm hoping a move to Wayland will smooth things out. I'm not a gamer anymore so intel graphics are good enough for me so I just deal with it.

I remember these types of problems in the early days of Linux, only then it was audio drivers. Getting audio to work was a disaster. Video typically worked ok but that was before nVidia and AMD were the major players. Now the tides have turned and audio works like a dream and video is what sucks ass.

I swear I've had more issues with video this last year than I did in the last 15 combined.

Cool story bro. Still aren't making any fucking sense though.

Sounds like they are ripe to be bought. I could see these as Google or Samsung storefronts easily. Apple store competition overnight.

If I can I do. But at least in that case LG and Sony actually made the fucking device. I don't Best Buy written all over it too any more than I want Verizon written on, nut then again, at least they are providing the service.

If RadioShack wants to advertise on MY device after I bought it then I want compensation for that.

I stopped visiting RadioShack in the mid-90's because everything in it had their fucking name stamped on it in big ass bold letters. I wanted an alarm clock but every single one had "WE'RE RADIOSHACK BITCH" written on the front right next to the time. I hate this in much the same way I hate car dealers putting their dealerships logo on the car I want to buy. I actually made a salesman scrape it off and have it repainted at their expense before I purchased the vehicle.

The best way to keep a species around is to eat it. You'll never see chickens and cows go extinct so long as they are yummy.

That said, your argument is ridiculous. Species go extinct all the time, regardless of human intervention. It's called natural selection and we're not apart from it. If a species goes extinct because of us then it wasnt fit to live. Likewise if something comes along and kills all of us we werent fit to survive. Those are the breaks.
